Worried for awhile.

I'm sure many of us tried this site a few days ago and couldn't quite figure out what was happening. I guess this is the new stuff.

Anyway, I bike about 20,000 miles per year on my two R*s, both 2000s, both set up with a few things I discovered on this site, like the roadwing. I'm fortunate enough to be in western Colorado during the summer and west/central Arizona in the winter. Not so many places to go in the winter, but rare is the week when I can't get out at least once.

And what amazes me? It's how cheap some used R*s are on Craig's List or Ebay these days. I hope we don't die out totally.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Roadstar ends up with a hardcore following like HDs with Knucklehead or Shovel engines.
No longer made but a RABID fan base that will keep them alive forever.
After all, the RS engine is basically a metric Twincam Shovelhead with everything the Milwaukee8 JUST fixed 20 years after the introduction of the Roadstar - and the M8 STILL has a cam chain instead of gear drive.!
Values aren't high ... at least not today, but I don't think we'll see the Roadstar go away for a long time.

BTW, nice color on that beast!

Thanks for the welcome. I have actually been here for several years. I see a profile date, so that might be the time. ???
